I don’t recommend buying the 42.00 lobster. It had no taste, was gummy, they didn’t serve it with the utensil to crack it open, nor did they cut it open to make it easier to access meat.

Given no option, I ate most of it and left half the tail. Manager came over afterward after waiter told her we weren’t happy. She said there was nothing she could do given it was mos... read more

I’m a regular on the boat, and I was highly disappointed with the lobster that I got yesterday which I paid $44.00. It had no taste was just water down no flavor whatsoever.
